A3D Interactive Audio Supported in GT Interactive's 'BugRiders: The Race of Kings' PC Game PR Newswire - November 12, 1997 08:11 AURL GTIS %CPR %MLM %ENT V%PRN P%PRN Jump to first matched term FREMONT, Calif., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Aureal(TM) Semiconductor Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: AURL) today announced that GT Interactive Software Corporation (Nasdaq: GTIS) has integrated support for Aureal A3D Interactive into its forthcoming PC release of "BugRiders: The Race of Kings," a 3D action combat racing game developed by n-Space. A3D Interactive uses Aureal's positional 3D sound technology, creating a highly realistic and immersive audio experience for the PC gamer. The 3D racing game which includes passing above, below, left and right of opponents, can now be enhanced by an audio experience that provides true 3D positioning. "Imagine an enemy attack from the rear in a real-life situation," said Toni Schneider, Aureal's Vice President of Marketing for PC products. "The first clue you'd have is an audio cue, upon which you could take a defensive action. Now, with A3D, it's possible to simulate that situation, making the entire gaming experience much more real and exciting." "Aureal technology provided us with a way to make BugRiders a much more immersive experience," said Dan O'Leary, Vice President of n-Space, Inc., and game designer for BugRiders. "Our engineers were able to craft amazing 3D soundfields that greatly enhance game play, and give the user a much 'realer' experience." n-Space previously used Aureal's A3D Interactive in their game, TigerShark. A3D Interactive technology is supported on many leading PCI audio chip sets, as well as on retail sound cards such as Diamond Multimedia's Monster Sound, Xitel's Storm 3D, and Shark Multimedia's Predator 3D.
